A media/terrorismmodel is proposed in the study, in order to shed lights on the complicatedrelationships among parties involved; government, mass media, terroristorganizations, and the general public.The model suggests four action elements that take place among thefour parties when competing and dealing with such events:1. Terrorists: creating events.2. Media: reporting events.3. Governments: influencing events.4. Public: understanding events.Furthermore, the model proposes six interaction relations among thefour parties involved in terrorists events, each one deals with how one partyinteracts with the other.
